Jane & Mike Tomlinson have raised over 1.4 million for charity. In YOU CANT TAKE IT WITH YOU the Tomlinsons explain how they achieved that incredible goal & why Jane who has a terminal cancer diagnosis chose to put her long-suffering body through such difficult experiences. The book takes us from Jane & her brother Lukes cycle ride from John OGroats to Lands End with Jane stopping twice for chemotherapy en route on to her incredible ride with Luke from Rome to Leeds & then out to Florida for the full Ironman triathlon. This last challenge is almost inconceivable to the average person involving as it does a 2.5-mile swim a 112-mile cycle & then a full marathon run. Battling severe pain Jane completed the course in 15 hours & 48 minutes. In summer 2006 Jane cycled from San Francisco to New York an epic 6 700-kilometre journey that took her to breathtaking altitudes & through searing heat. But Janes ultimate goals are rather more straight-forward. She would simply like to live long enough to see her daughters & young son grow towards independence & to experience every day to its utmost.
